The beautiful white sands and emerald waters of Destin and the Emerald Coast attract a seemingly countless number of visitors every season. When visitors get here, they have primarily one thing in mind, and that is to go down and spend time at the beach. However, there is plenty more to do, and great activities to take advantage of while you are enjoying your stay in Destin. While there are plenty of local attractions to choose from, one of the most beloved pastimes in Destin is fishing. After all, Destin is labeled the “World’s Luckiest Fishing Village,” and for good reason too. There are many ways to enjoy fishing, but the most popular is by charter boat. There are many different charter boats that specialize in certain aspects of fishing in Destin, and it can be confusing for people who live inland. This article should clear up the differences between deepsea, offshore, and inshore fishing.

 

Deepsea Fishing

Fishing charters that specialize in deepsea fishing are especially popular in the veteran anglers, primarily because the fish that are biting in waters extending out past twenty-four miles offshore are very big and have a lot of stamina to fight while on the line. While many seek to catch a real monster while on vacation, sometimes it isn’t practical, especially if you are looking to take young children fishing for their first time. Deepsea fishing charters also take time out of the trip to reach the fishing destinations, which can be a big chunk of the time for the entire trip.

 

Offshore fishing

Fishing charters that specialize in offshore fishing are great for the intermediate crowd. The fish here can still be big, and the distance and time it takes to travel to the fishing spots. Offshore charters typically find their spots between nine and twenty-four miles away from the coastline. Offshore charters are a fun experience for those who know how to fish and are looking for fun.

 

Inshore Fishing

Fishing charters that specialize in inshore fishing are great for anyone and everyone. The fish are usually smaller than the ones out out further at sea, but there still is a chance to catch a huge one from the zero to nine mile section that inshore fishing takes place in. The smaller fish gives everyone a chance to really enjoy fishing, and can create beautiful and lifelong lasting memories for young children and adults alike. Being so close to the shore allows for the charter boat to get to the destinations quickly and spend the most time with your line in the water.
